Being a fresher.

Today we finished our research for our project. For me this meant finding out the average price for popular take away meals and comparing the price of them to the cost and health of making them. I chose pizza, fried chicken, burger and chips and fish and chips. I knew takeaways were expensive but what I didn’t realise was just how expensive they are in comparison with the ingredients. The most eye-opening bit of research for me was that for the price of a takeaway burger, you could buy a pack of 4 of the highest quality burgers from any major supermarket. I also found links to websites that offer reduced rates on food to students or free food giveaways.

After this we all grouped together again to pool our research and discuss the key points we needed to get across and what the best way to do that would be. We came to the conclusion that our initial idea of a small booklet would be the best way of answering the brief.

We then drew up a rough drawing board of what content we were going to include and where it would go in the booklet and divided the pages up between us. In the interest of consistency we decided to agree on a consistent style, which after a reasonably lengthy discussion resulted in a colour scheme of brown and green on a white background with black text, and we agreed that if another colour as needed we’d use yellow. We also decided that in the interest of portability and mass production/distribution that we’d make the booklet small, with each page being vertical A6.
